Interesting fact
The Club series of coins, which includes the 1 As coin from Volaterrae, was a standardized currency introduced by the Etruscans to facilitate trade across their cities and territories. The Club series coins feature a standardized design, with the front side depicting a club symbol, and the back side featuring a unique design for each city or territory. The use of standardized currency helped to promote economic unity and stability across the Etruscan civilization.
